“San Francisco (IDGNS) – Intel unveiled an improved wireless card on
Tuesday that will allow notebook PC users to share five times the data
at twice the range of their current 802.11a/g cards, improving PCs’
ability to download music and stream high-definition video.

ntel’s Next-Gen Wireless-N network connection is an embedded network
adapter card that uses the IEEE 802.11 Draft-N standard, and also
operates with previous a, b, and g standards.”

….

“The new card boosts wireless bandwidth by using two input and output
streams instead of one. That approach would usually burn through
battery life faster, but the card also optimizes data payloads so they
uses the available bandwidth with less overhead, he said. Together,
that design enables the card to support MPG-2 video signals by
sustaining a 19Mbps data stream at a range of 68 meters, Hofer said.”
